Summary of the contracting process

East and North Hertfordshire Teaching Hospital NHS Trust procured building and facilities works for its SSU building, covering general building fabric repairs and specialist damp proofing. The work is categorised as building and facilities management services, with the main procurement category being works. Delivery is associated with the Trust’s SSU site in Stevenage, Hertfordshire. This requirement is relevant to contractors able to diagnose and remedy damp, protect and repair building fabric, and coordinate associated building works in an NHS hospital environment. The Trust is based in Welwyn Garden City and is the organisation responsible for buying and using the works. The procurement was made through the SBS10166 framework, so it relates specifically to a framework call-off rather than a standalone open-market project.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded. It used a selective procedure as a call-off from the SBS10166 framework. The contract was awarded to R&B Refurbishment (Skafftec Ltd) on 15 August 2025 for £126,319.94 including the stated contract value. The procurement’s estimated minimum value was £120,000. The contract period runs from 17 August 2025 to 31 March 2027. The tender submission deadline was 28 July 2025 at 12:00. The award is recorded as active, with the contract covering the SSU building fabric works and specialist damp proofing requirement. The opportunity was marked as unsuitable for SMEs and voluntary, community or social enterprises, indicating that participation was aligned with the framework’s established supplier arrangements.

For a supplier assessing future NHS estate work, this award demonstrates demand for a combined building-fabric and specialist damp-proofing capability at a hospital trust, delivered through a public sector framework call-off. A credible competitor would need practical experience of diagnosing moisture and water-ingress problems, selecting and installing appropriate damp-proofing treatments, and carrying out associated repairs to walls, finishes and other building elements. It would also need the capacity to manage planned works safely in an operational healthcare setting, with strong site controls, coordination and quality assurance. Because the requirement was obtained through a framework, relevant suppliers would need access to the applicable framework route and the ability to meet its supplier, compliance and performance requirements. The awarded supplier was an SME, showing that specialist smaller contractors can deliver this type of work through the framework.
